Is there any explanable reason why Butcher's Bridge isn't a map choice for ARAM?

You guys have rotating queue now....what's stopping you from doing the same with the Bilgewater map?

Tech demands most likely; depending on how the queue and the tech's set up it might be impossible to have two maps in rotation. Remember When Butcher's Bridge was around, the Howling Abyss was inaccessible. Right now they probably just don't have the prepared tech, server capacity or something else that would be necessary to bring the map in to circulation again.

couldn't they just switch it themselves like they do with the rotation every week?

Probably too much time/effort/resources. I wish we could have Butcher's though or at least have it in the rotating queue

yeah. I loved the map. It's a shame its not being used...

It's literally copy/pasting the RGM code, and adjusting the data tables for Howling Abyss and Butcher's Bridge.

too much effort to not put in the entire MAP SKIN they made back

I loved everything about that map. The GP announcer, the music, and the map itself.

As I tell people all the time: Because they thought about monetizing it.

In the end they didn't, which honestly makes me think the negative backlash made them shelf it. Which lead to them just forgetting it like they did with Chromas. Just make 1v1 the howling abyss map and rotate in Butcher's as the new ARAM map.

They need to make a game mode for Butcher Bridge, probably best to leave regular ARAM for it and leave Poro King for Freljord Howling Abyss.

Butcher's Bridge should be in the RGM
